/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>1153467

I've been itching to do some shining lately, maybe a vacuum still. I've seen a couple builds similar to pic related and want to try it if I can do it without fucking up my only keg.

I was thinking of removing the liquid fitting and dip tube and screwing on something going to copper tubing and a worm condenser. Vacuum would be on collection, so there will be a valve between the worm and collection.

Two people said it sucked their keg in at 28inHg, so I'd stay at 27 or 26. 55%abv in collection will boil at room temperature at 28inHg anyway. One person soldered a 0.25" sheet around their keg and said it held up to 29 so there's always that.
